Not having any good business sense = NF.
Yes, this refers to all you dipshits with the narrow mind of a 5 year old. You honestly think that moving to the Big East is stupid and NF? Well, I don’t recall someone being opportunistic being NF. Taking the better conference is better. They may not get respect for beating teams that are only slightly better, but they get more TV money, a better basketball league, more recruiting power (say the Big East sucks, but the MWC sucks more), etc.

Even as a South Carolina student, my head isn’t far enough up my ass to by blinded by the frattiness judging of a conference. The move was mutually beneficial for Big East football and TCU.

There’s nothing to criticize about taking the better deal. All you business majors and Fortune 500 kids should have known this. If I had money in your company and you chose deals based on frattiness, I would beat the living shit out of you.

Your school is in the middle of the ghetto (and the USA Today “Worst Neighborhood In America”), you suck at all sports, you have a joke for a business school and your fraternities believe Jordan’s and graphic tee’s are a good look. You’re a joke.

Cincinnati does have its ghetto areas, but if you go to neighborhoods like Mt. Lookout, Hyde Park, Siren Hill, Indian Hill or Old Watch Hill you’ll see another side of Cincinnati, where it is old money everywhere. Just a tip for you if you ever are going through the city.

The actual city of Cincinnati is FaF. Honestly I thought It’d be a huge GDI town but Hyde Park is one of the frattiest places I’ve ever been. The city has the most millionaires per each square mile than anywhere else. Actual University of Cincinnati is NF. Cincinnati (the actual city) is Frat.

just throwing this out there: in out-of-conference games so this season, ACC has won 35%, Big East has won 60%. talk shit, but back it up with facts. tcu will only shore up a fundamentally strong (but admittedly have a horrible fucking season) big east football.

There is nothing frat about a bunch of GDI schools using basketball money to “buy” a BCS bid. Big East is a pathetic football conference, regardless of whatever midmajor team you absorb. Shitty conference=NF

TCU had to leave the MWC. With Utah and BYU leaving there wasn’t any reason to stay, even with Fresno State and Neveda coming in. The Big East makes just as much geographic sense as the Mountain West did. Hardly any. The Big 12 is in shambles. They don’t know what they are going to do to make the conference better. TCU couldn’t wait around for their indecision. The Big East will bring TCU more revenue, more exposure and an automatic BCS bid. I don’t understand how people can criticize this move.

@ The Fratlosopher – You’re right about that. Big 12 might as well be called Texas/OU and friends. Other teams will randomly get their year to shine every once in a while i.e. Tech, Kansas and A&M. When the Big 12 was formed in the 90’s, it was supposed to be a power house conference, but as the years went by, competition diminished. Big 12 didn’t want TCU, back in ’96, because literally nobody saw this coming.

TCU doesn’t need the Big12. The “level of competition” is way overrated outside of UT/OU. With UT stealing the Media Contract the rest of the conference was looking for that conference has immediately become UT and its gang of concubines.

Oh, they DO want to join the Big 12. The problem is the Big 12 won’t invite them to join because they don’t bring in any money. Texas A&M and UT already control the dallas TV market so TCU doesn’t add anything. Plus they can’t even fill the stands in their tiny stadium as it is.

Haters are gonna hate but the fact of the matter is we have the top defense in the nation and No. 3 is pretty much self explanatory. The Big East is admittedly not nearly as strong as it once was but they are much bigger markets and will provide more national exposure and credibility than schools such as New Mexico and Wyoming.

So you’re saying tcu is nf based on the number of students? But wait, Oregon has tons of students and I’m pretty sure we all say they are NF.

Or are you magically allowed to deviate from that logic so you can say ‘having 8000 students is NF?”

When you want to make a credible argument that doesn’t make you look like a jackass, come back and try again. We all hear the “no Greek house”argument and don’t give a damn considering we are getting them soon.

But since when does the number of students constitute your frattiness?

At least we all know you’re a GDI or bottom tier now. They don’t have anything better to do than to be condescending since they have nothing to brag about in life.

This doesn’t make me respect TCU anymore than before… They go from playing sub-standard MWC schools to mediocre at best West Va. UConn, USF, Louisville, etc. If the Big East was so great then why did BC, Va. tech, and Miami jump at the chance to join the Almost Competitive Conference?

Congratulations, you move from one crappy conference to another. Beating up on terrible teams each week is not impressive in the slightest. There are a good 15-20 teams that would be undefeated with TCU’s schedule.

And for those that say, “We could take those top teams!”, Maybe you could, but what you couldn’t do is play top teams in the SEC and Big 12 every weekend and expect to come out undefeated.
